Quinoa & Veggies!





Amazing.

Ingredients:

1/2c. raw quinoa
1c chicken broth or water
1 1/2c broccoli florets, I made sure they were sliced up a bit smaller.
1/3c diced onion
1/2 plum tomato, small dice
2T oil/butter
2T Worcestershire sauce (preferably homemade LIKE MY GRANDMA'S. IT'S AMAZING.)


Directions:
1. Cook quinoa according to package directions. I made my quinoa earlier in the day to save time on cooking for supper. Worked great! Also, 1c raw quinoa equals roughly 4, 1c servings.
2. In a sautee pan melt 1T butter or heat up some oil of your choice.
3. Add onions and cook until almost translucent. Add broccoli.
4. Make sure to season with salt and pepper. Get all that stuff happy together and slightly browned.
5. Add quinoa and 1T of oil if needed, don't want it to get dried out.
6. Cook until heated thru, maybe 5 minutes.
7. Throw tomatoes in at last second so they soften from the heat and then serve!

It'd be great with Parm cheese, I just didn't have any. This stuff was so good. All together it makes at least 4, 1c servings. Great side dish or just a great meal in itself!
